Woodridge Movember Team raises funds for Cancer Awareness

Posted by danmurray104, Community Contributor

Every November, men world-wide grow out their "Mo" and raise funds for Movember. The Woodridge Movember team, run by Woodridge Police Officer Dan Murray, has participated in this fundraising effort for the past three years and is looking to raise awareness of testicular and prostate cancers, and to raise funds for research of these killers again this year. Over the past 3 years, the Woodridge Movember team has raised approximately $4,500. This year they've set a goal of $5,000.

How can people help? Well, the simplist way is to donate. Anyone who wants to donate can do so on-line at www.mobro.co/WoodridgeMovember and donate to the team or to their favorite team member. But for those willing to help us out, anyone can sign-up as a team member and do their best to raise funds for the cause. And this year, the top fund-raiser will win a $500 cash prize!
